West Brom-focused Twitter account @WBAReport recently posted a tweet sharing some alleged news regarding the future of current Baggies loanee Grady Diangana.
@WBAReport’s post, which cites ‘Claret and Hugh’ as the original source of the alleged news on Diangana, claims that Hammers manager David Moyes “is keen on integrating” Diangana into West Ham’s first-team next season.
Claret and Hugh recently published a report stating that while Baggies boss Slaven Bilic allegedly wants to take the 22-year-old to The Hawthorns on a permanent deal for next season, Moyes is “looking at him to play a major role” for West Ham.
West Ham are understood to have no intention of selling Grady Diangana this summer, even if they are relegated to the Championship.

Plenty of Baggies supporters have flocked to this post about Diangana and many of them have been sharing that they aren’t too surprised by West Ham’s reported interest in holding onto him once his loan deal with West Brom expires.

Some Baggies supporters responded to this post by sharing that they still hope that their side can lure him to The Hawthorns for next season.
Diangana is a West Brom type of player , West Ham won’t know how to use him & they would probably get relegated in a normal season. WBA FC should bid £20-£25 million for him and keep him at Albion as we have a young talented team that plays attractive football..

As per WhoScored, Diangana has scored five goals and provided five assists in his 21 Championship appearances for West Brom during the 2019/20 campaign. He has also earned an impressive average overall rating of 7.15 from his 21 league appearances for the Baggies this term, making him West Brom’s fourth-highest rated player for the 2019/20 Championship season.
With that in mind, it may be fair to say that Diangana has delivered some impressive performances during his time on loan at West Brom this season and it may not come as a surprise that both West Ham and the Baggies are reportedly interested in having him in their ranks next season.
